Parent-facing buggy?

8 replies

Is there such a thing as a decent, folding, parent-facing buggy?

DS is growing out of the pram and we need a good buggy as we have no car, do a lot of walking and would like to use the bus and carry shopping.

I've tried a normal street-facing buggy but neither of us like it. I'm a bit hard of hearing and I can't hear him properly when he's trying to speak to me while facing away with the traffic noise.
I miss being about to chat to him, sing songs when no one's about and see what he's doing with a snack or if he's dropped his toy or grabbed something he shouldn't.

DS is 18 months so needs the buggy quite a bit, does anyone have any recommendations please?

The Uppababy vista allows you to choose which way the child faces. It’s a very comfy buggy and folds.

Many years ago, I had a bebeconfort Loola, that had a pushchair seat that you could put either way.

We had the maxi cosi elea and kept DD parent-facing in it until just before she turned 4 (it was a long walk to nursery!).

Ooh thanks for more recommendations! The ones I've looked at seem to be more prams for babies than folding buggies for a toddler.
Ginfor everyone who made a suggestion Smile
